Southwest OK | Solid old tractors. Would agree with others that the transmission needs more gears, and it is hard to get all of its power to the ground. Dad bought one new in 79, traded it off in 92 for an 876. It had 11,000 hrs. then. Electrolysis got one motor at around 6500 hours. No other major issues I know of. It is possible that the pto is not an expensive fix. I had a 4850 that the pto didn't work in. Had a local mechanic fix it, was only a sticky valve. Been a long time ago but I do remember thinking it was a cheap repair bill. | |
